Flux: My Life's Other Constant

Yeah! Dodgeball!

The first being God of course. So, since the end of August to the beginning of October, things have been busy and shifting and just a whole lotta fun. The month actually started out kinda slow and picked up. So to keep things readable I will just give the highlights:

Teaching - It has been steady-ish. But the place I was working at was really taking their time, and not showing much initiative in getting me the proper paperwork, which was making me nervous. I was approached by another lady about another teaching position, so I went to talk with her. The long and short of it is, 15 hours a week in the mornings, a work permit (which we have already started the process on), 10,000 baht a month, plus housing. Which means I will be moving back to Hang Dong where I want to be anyways, She also has connections in the next town to the south, and I will have afternoons and evenings to do ministry. Plus the house is near North Chiang Mai University, where I used to teach, so I will be able to pick up on some old relationships there as well.

Spelling Fruits

Ministry - Am still starting conversations, but not meeting with much interest. But been able to talk a little bit deeper about my faith in a couple of my classes talking about why I am Thailand. Please pray that the seeds I am throwing out there would find fertile soil and that the Holy Spirit would really be guiding me to the places I need to be going.

Volunteering - This month I was able to help out at two different English camps, one with friends from church and one with a school I randomly got connected to. They were fun, and got to make some new contacts as well.

I also had the chance to go with some friends on an overnight bike trip through the mountains near here. Praise God that we made it back in one piece after some of the road conditions we encountered and the sheer length of it. But it was fun, got to know several of my friends better and just had a blast. It was nice to get out of Chiang Mai for a weekend and do something different.

So in the next couple of weeks I will preparing to move again. I will start the new job at the end of this month for the second term of school, November to the end of February or first of March.



In my next update, I will be detailing what my plan is (Lord willing) for the next year, So be on lookout for that! Love you all, thank for all your prayers and support! See you in a few weeks.
